"In [list the source, for example, a recent editorial], the author argues [briefly summarize the argument, for example, that businesses should relocate to Helios].

I believe Margaret Drabble’s statement, “Our desire to conform is greater than our respect for objective facts,” to be quite true. Throughout history, people of all ages have wanted to be accepted and belong to a group rather than look at the facts and measure what is true and false. It is very evident in our society today that not only do we want to be accepted and belong, but we also are willing to do whatever it takes, no matter what the consequences turn out to be. I agree with Drabble’s statement and believe that it is true all around the world. If you were to step outside our society and look back at it objectively, I can assure you that you would see evidence of this.…
All people no matter who they are and no matter if they realize it or not, surround themselves with people who act or think like them, this is because humans naturally want to interact with people who share the same ideas and beliefs as they do themselves. When interacting with new or different people it can cause one to have mixed feelings about the experience. The opinion about a new group can either be positive or negative but having the experience is important to be able to decide a reasonable judgment about the unknown culture.…
The Golden State is the central idea of my collage essay, and my collage itself. California inspires me in so many ways and I feel I have represented that throughout my collage. Style, fashion, meeting amazing people, and the individualism that comes with being a Californian has given me such a broader outlook on the uniqueness of the state that I live in and has being my inspiration. I honestly think that living in California has given students that wish to pursue a creative career, including me, a much bigger advantage in reaching goals and aspirations.…

“Crippin' is a choice, but it's forever. You may slow down, but you will always be down forever.” (Washington 1969). Founded in Los Angeles, California in 1969 by Raymond Washington and Stanley Tookie Williams III; the Crips are now a loosely connected network of individual sets. Through the years the gang has grown to be one of the largest and most powerful gangs in the United States, currently with over 30,000 gang members. Members of the are known to be involved in murders, robberies, drug dealing, and many more criminal activities. The gang is notorious for its flamboyant use of the color blue. Wearing blue any and everywhere, gang members often get heckled by the police. The Crips are known to have an intense and bitter rivalry with the Bloods and various surrounding gangs. They are also locked in an ongoing struggle over the drug trade with the Vice Lords. Raymond initially called the gang the Baby Avenues in an attempt to emulate older gangs and the activities carried out by the Black Panthers; Raymond was fascinated with the movement of the Black Panthers. The Gang renamed itself the Avenue Cribs and then took on the nickname the Cribs, because of the young age of members. The name Crips was first introduced in the Los Angeles Sentinel newspaper in a description by crime victims of young men with canes, as if they were crippled. Resources state, it could have just been a misspelling error, either way the name stuck, and the Crips were officially Born Gangsters. Stanley Tookie Williams, generally acknowledged as co-founder of the Crips, started his own gang called the Westside Crips. Crip meaning “Community Revolution In Progress”. The Crips became popular throughout southern Los Angeles as more youth gangs joined; at one point they outnumbered non-crip gangs by 3 to 1, sparking disputes with non-crip gangs, including the L.A. Brims, Athens Parks Boys, the Bishops and the Denver Lanes. The Crips eventually…

“Get on the ground! Don’t move! Don’t ask questions just sit there and shut up!!” said the Officer. “But why? Wait you can’t search my car. You don’t have a warrant!” I cried. “I don’t need a warrant to search your car. Shut Up I am the law boy!” shouted the officer.

Assignment: As stated in Allyn and Bacon’s Guide to Writing, your goal is to “write a narrative essay about something significant in your life using the literary strategies of plot, character, and setting. Develop your story through the use of contraries, creating tension that moves the story forward and gives it significance. You can discuss the significance of your story explicitly, perhaps as a revelation, or you can imply it. Use specific details and develop contraries that create tension. In the Allyn and Bacon text, (the authors) argue that a narrative qualifies as a story only when it depicts a series of connected events that create for the reader a sense of tension or conflict that is resolved through a new understanding or change in status. Your goal for this assignment is to write a story about your life that fulfills these criteria.…
Some people use marijuana for health purposes, some just use it to get really high. Smoking marijuana isn’t as bad as it seems to others. Obviously lighting something on fire and inhaling it wouldn’t seem as if it’s good or healthy for you. That’s why people get the wrong impression. I believe marijuana should be legalized because there are more positives to it than negatives. Marijuana can help people medically and help the economy. Ironically other substances that are legal that’s killing everybody is legal but the one thing that seems to cure people is illegal.…
